I changed the title to reflect the intended user-visible behavior, which was always the real issue. The original title proposed a solution that would not work. The revised title gave an alternate solution that should not work. The discrepancy between clicking [Ok] and and pressing <Return> arises because pressing Enter in the query box leaks <KeyRelease-Return> to the text, which happens to trigger a status bar update. I regard this somewhat accidental side-effect to be a bug to be fixed. Changing the text and status bar are the responsibility of the event handler. The line number query box should just return a positive int or None, without side-effect. So we should make sure that Query boxes do not leak key events and create a subclass to get a positive int. But such a replacement is somewhat independent of triggering <<set-line-and-column>>. A related issue is that goto does not clear selections. #39844. I may fix that and this with one PR. ---------- title: IDLE: replace uses of tkinter simpledialog with query.Query -> IDLE goto should always update status bar line & column _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue27115> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
